Everything is looking great as always. The driftwood on top looks really good, and I love the swords in the corner. I look forward to seeing them growing out of the water.
I love the changes you've made - both with the tech and plantings. the system has never looked better. PS: I knew it was only a matter of time before you decided to trim the horde of Japanese Clover ;)
Thank you! yes indeed I was holding myself from trimming H.tripartita, trying to find some aesthetic pleasure in its overwhelming mass, but eventually I couldn't let it overtake the entire scape
Very nice tank. I have a riparium with a moss wall, and i don’t have that much success with plants. Probably becauss i don’t have enought fertiliser. There is only one Channa living in, and i guess he doesn t create enought waste. Do you know the brand of your water pomp? I’m thinking about changing mine.
Thank you! Adding more fertilizers to your tank probably will help the plants to grow faster. One channa is certainly isn't producing much waste. I have a no-brand pump sold by Allpondsolutions, which you can find easily if you are in the UK. it is sort of the cheapest pump available, but very quiet and powerful
@@tropicalfishhub Do you do water changes and do you have any form of fungus or mould growing within your Paludarium ? the reason I'm asking is diversity often ensures dominance can not occur, thus if you have moulds that are of healthy presence they may hinder the development of other moulds that are less healthy,,,, I put two small pieces of elder wood in my sump drip flow filter for this reason, springtails keep the fungus in check so it remains in balance,,,,! the mould has a presence in the water column but not enough of a presence to be dominant,,, this is just a theory of course but there might be something to it worth exploring....!
@@ChristopherLecky I stopped doing water changes about a month ago, just topping up evaporation. All looks good so far when it comes to parameters. Interesting idea on fungus, etc. Much of my above-the-water area is actually far too wet to grow any terrestrial fungi/mould because of the drip wall.
@@tropicalfishhub You would be surprized to discover that some terrestrial molds can survive in water ,,, either way your tank looks impressive and the growth looks really healthy and mature,,,,!
I appreciate tanks like these a little more that an expensive aqauscape. Looking very good.

Thank you Gil! I've had up and downs with echinodorus before, so fingers crossed I'd be lucky this time!
What a fantastic work ! Excelent Nature oasis, Congratulations 👏👏👏
Thank you!
One of the most beautiful paludarium that i've ever seen ❤.
Thank you very much!
Looking spectacular! And your chair looks super comfy! A match made in heaven 🤗 I'd certainly be sitting there as much as possible.
Thank you:) I certainly spend plenty of time in that chair!

Beautiful
Thank you:)

Thank you:)
Looking great, abit overplanted(under water) for my taste but that seems to be the norm. The wall looks insanely good.
Thank you:) I am occasionally trimming submersed stem plants, but they are too fast for me ...

Do you have issue with jumping fish. Especially the Corys that surf the front glass.
I have pencilfish jumping out occasionally. Corys will not jump as long as there are floating plants on surface and they sense where the waterline is

@@tropicalfishhub Thank you!!
